Gefitinib induces myeloid differentiation of acute myeloid leukemia
AbstractCure rates for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remain low despite ever-increasing dose intensity of cytotoxic therapy. In an effort to identify novel approaches to AML therapy, we recently reported a new method of chemical screening based on the modulation of a gene expression signature of interest.

A CASE OF MYELOID CHLOROMA [PDF]
Cases of chloroma are sufficiently rare to warrant reports of individual cases, particularly if of the myeloid variety, as the literature shows they are of less frequent occurrence than the lymphatic form. REPORT OF CASE History. —K. F., a boy, aged 18 months, the youngest child of three, born of healthy American parents, breast fed, was always well,

Patient‐derived xenografts (PDXs) can be improved by implantation of a humanized niche. We tested different biomaterials and approaches, and demonstrate that the combination of an injectable biomaterial for scaffold creation plus an intravenous route for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) xenotransplantation provide the most convenient and robust approach to

Development of pediatric myeloid leukemia may be related to the repeatedbone-remodeling during bone-growth [PDF]
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) are two major formsof leukemia developed from myeloid cells (MCs). To understand why AML and CML occurin children, we analyzed the causes and the mechanism of cell transformation of a MC. I.

Optimized Treatment Schedules for Chronic Myeloid Leukemia [PDF]
Over the past decade, several targeted therapies (e.g. imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib) have been developed to treat Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). Despite an initial response to therapy, drug resistance remains a problem for some CML patients. Recent studies have shown that resistance mutations that preexist treatment can be detected in a substan ...

Tumor angiogenic switch determines sustained proliferative malignant transformation in tumorigenesis and overlaps with para-inflammatory phenomena [PDF]
Contextual BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase over-activity determines in formulated fashion the emergence of proliferation and anti-apoptosis that arise largely as derived phenomena of otherwise homeostatic mechanisms of the c-ABL gene within hematopoietic ...

A Trib2-p38 axis controls myeloid leukaemia cell cycle and stress response signalling [PDF]
Trib2 pseudokinase is involved in the etiology of a number of cancers including leukaemia, melanoma, ovarian, lung and liver cancer. Both high and low Trib2 expression levels correlate with different types of cancer.

KMT2A degradation is observed in decitabine‐responsive acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells
We demonstrate that decitabine (DEC) not only degrades the DNA methyltransferase DNMT1 but also the leukemic driver lysine methyltransferase KMT2A likely due to structural similarity of the DNA‐binding CXXC domains. DEC influences KMT2A downstream processes and synergizes with menin inhibitor revumenib (REV) to decrease leukemic cell proliferation, and

Toward a better analysis of secreted proteins: the example of the myeloid cells secretome [PDF]
The analysis of secreted proteins represents a challenge for current proteomics techniques. Proteins are usually secreted at low concentrations in the culture media, which makes their recovery difficult. In addition, culture media are rich in salts and other compounds interfering with most proteomics techniques, which makes selective precipitation of ...
